LT/LS Guy

Maybe the same idiot that compares a 2011 GT to a 1998 F-body?!?

Now that I think about it, wasn't there some talk here not to long ago comparing the new GT to a C5Z and that the performance was close, like in a drivers race. Thought I saw something like that. Maybe im mistaken.

^I want to say that sounds familiar too.

I remember something like that too. It was one of the nutswingers but can't put my hand on which one.

that swinger was on crack. a bolt on C5...maybe, but weight is tough to overcome.

I think people were comparing the boss 302 to the c5z not the GT

LT/LS Guy

Same thing I was thinking.

I think I remember reading this too. I believe one of the rags did state that the boss was faster around their test track than the grand sport vette. It was a current issue that tested and compared all four mustangs. They also said the boss cylinder heads were cnc ported and each one spent I think 40 minutes on the machine. So basically, the boss is a heads, cams, intake, geared, tuned GT from the factory. GM...you paying attention?

OP, good vids. Thanks for sharing.

I think I was that guy.... but the only thing I force down throats is *****(yes, just my *****),..so unless your a chick, I wouldn't worry about that. You can have all the power in the world,...you still gotta drive it. Seems like he's doing better then other dude, it's obvious a cam would compliment is driving/setup. End of story.

The boss is also 41000. For 48000, I would ante up the 7 grand more for the gt500. And yes, you can get a gt500 from a ford web site for 48,000 new.

For another 2k you could be pushing close to 600 rwhp out of the gt500. I guess the vette is not going to be the only "rich kid's" car anymore
Or just put a $6000 procharger on a $32000 camaro and it will beat the Boss. There are many scenarios. I drove the GT, the Boss and the GT500, I'm a mustang guy and still bought the vette. Fords are just so damn easy and cheap to mod
Gm is paying attention, its called the ZL1

How are LSx motors not easy and cheap to mod?

Vettes are in their own league..

Sorry. I did mean to refer to the vette. Nothing is cheap to mod on the vetted compared to the mustangs. Then again, I knew that when I bought it. Still the best sports car I have ever owned

I wonder if anyone can get a boss for anywhere near sticker. Did the one you drove have a markup? Oh yeah, the ZL1....we'll see!

Irunelevens

If I remember correctly, people were saying (truthfully) that a new 5.0 with a few bolt-ons and a tune would give a stock C5Z a good run. Obviously when both are modded, the Z06 is going to come out on top.

LMAO, you were forcing a cam on him like if you were giving them away for free

Here you go since you brought up ***** randomly...

The only reason I was able to drive it was because I have bought 4 cars from them. The sticker was cut out where the price was. From what they were saying, I would get a better deal on a gt500

AWDTBSS

$500 into my dads c5 z06 got it about 20-25whp pretty cheap in my opinion. N/A to N/A i'd think it'd be comparable in price to mod LSx to the 5.0 2011. But ya corvettes are expensive to mod with the corvette tax lol

I brought it up due to the throat comment. Random? Maybe. Accurate? yessir.

We've got a cam or few laying around.
